Ace Ventura 2. I know it's such a typical film to pick but it was a stepping stone to branch out to people in a humorous manner. And it's ok to be funny is what I got the impression growing up. Although in more "serious" manner, I loved the Truman show. Made me realize how bad or the downside of the world trying to control you in such a manner for their own benefit. And how your decisions were based on arranged plans. Really want to make your life whatever you want not what society wants.

"almost never reinventing himself or the performances he tries to give" I feel like you glossed past Eternal Sunshine to strengthen your overall argument, but the film has had such a profound impact & his performance is so understated and nuanced. It's truly a major oversight & its omission undercuts the claim you're trying to make. Jim Carrey is capable of great dramatic performances, and saying he almost never reinvents the performances he's trying to give is an unnecessary simplification of a culturally significant actor. But in the end, I truly appreciate the effort you put into crafting this video, and, based on your responses to other comments pointing out this oversight, I know you care & want to deliver a comprehensive and insightful video. I'm sure it can't feel good to be called out over and over again about the same thing, so thank you for listening & for continuing to create.

I appreciate the time that went into making this video but I think you missed the mark here. Jim Carrey is "similar" in roles in the same way Robin Williams was "similar" in roles. Both of them are legendary comic actors and brought in enormous box office. Both also went on to serious things that were further out of their wheelhouse. Dismissing "Kidding" and "Eternal Sunshine" to support your argument is frustrating and I disagree with your main premise. So to say people only want 90s Jim Carrey I think is like saying people only want Robin Williams from Good Morning Vietnam. There are very distinct differences in the roles both decided to play later in their careers so it seems like you're minimizing the work and talent required by the actors.

I really dig your career survey videos, and this one was a lot of fun! I'm in the minority that really, *really* loves the movie version of A Series of Unfortunate Events. I think if the studios had allowed the film to be darker--that is, if they had allowed *Carrey* to be darker--it would have been better received. Because he has some real menace in that performance that I wish would have been allowed to shine through more.

Eternal Sunshine gets a glancing mention and then a minute is spent discussing his performance in the Kick Ass sequel. No mention of I Love You Philip Morris, and I found the discussion of the Truman Show could have been done better. But I may just be biased there as it's a favorite movie of mine. I am just very confused. It feels like half a video, but it's 17 minutes long.

I wish he could see this bc I truly believe it would touch him just the same. And I also went to see Sonic mostly bc of Jim Carrey. He's still a star in a lot of ppl's eyes and considering his vulnerability and openness about his depression, im sure I'm in support that we want to see him win! It's great seeing him do what he loves. We're glad and grateful he's still here. I appreciate and respect your opinion/perspective tho :)

I don't believe you skip 'kidding' entirely, in my opinion is Jim Carrey's most interesting role - I think it kind of sum up his interelly life.

I think _Kidding_ is the greatest performance in Jim Carrey's career. It is necessary to see at least the whole first season to truly appreciate it. Maybe -in general- the same applies to getting a grasp of the TV series; in my case just watching the pilot was enough. Great drama.

You overlooked his cameo in "The bad batch" where he played a very unique character in the hermit, a grimy weird person travelling through the desert with a shopping cart, wordless, almost alien. A great performance, albeit short, that most definitely proves once more his acting chops.

Harrison Ford made 3 cult movies in 25 months (and few days) which is also pretty amazing. -Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back, 17 May 1980 -Raiders of the Lost Ark, 12 June 1981 -Blade Runner, 25 June 1982 And all of his characters became cult characters too (Han Solo was already it), not just the movies were BIG.

Interesting fact: Jim carrey was supposed to Star as Howard Hughes in a biopic directed by Christopher Nolan. But the movie did not happen due to the fact that Christopher Nolan did not want to compete with Martin Scorsese.( both his movie and Scorsese movie we're supposed to come out in the same year)

This guy is a genius. That's why he can pull off doing the same schtick for decades and somehow still keep it fresh and entertaining. Just watch some of his promos for Sonic - he's sharp as a razor, always on the edge. And yes, he is very versatile, his drama attempts are more than just that - he got two Golden Globes for his roles in Truman Show and Man On The Moon, albeit he was always snubbed by Oscars, not even getting nominations for those two.

How the hell can you just gloss over Eternal Sunshine in like one sentence! That for me, is to this day what kept Jim Carrey interesting after a lot of mediocre comedies - apart from his memorable part in Kick-Ass 2. And yes, I also haven't seen Kidding so far... xD

Carrey is a fantastic physical actor. The transformation from the uncomfortable, twitchy, unsure Stanley Ipkiss to the deliberate, expressive, bombastic Mask is really well done, you feel like the Mask has allowed Stanley to stop caring and just go wild. It's not just The Mask either - in Sonic as Robotnik he's very deliberate, with occasional expressive, uncontrolled movements when he's surprised, or saying something off the cuff, or he thinks he's alone. I feel he captures Dr. Robotnik really well.

Watching this video shows me how much Hollywood has fallen, especially when you mention how movies have shifted from being focused on star power in favor of branding, ultimately making it feel like everything is just an advertisement for products.
